G
See Thomas Jefferson
C G
On the eve of Bunker Hill
C G
Writing words to die for
Em D G
Writing sentences to kill
They've come to paint his portrait
C G
So he grabs a chair and sits
Em C
As the surgeon orders cotton
D G
For a thousand tourniquets
C
For God and country
Em
For us and them
C
Every good idea
Em
Kills at least a thousand men
C D G
At least a thousand men
See the able-bodied Christian
C G C
In a dark and savage land
G
Tellin' all those who will listen
Em D G
That God was once a man
Through needles eye so narrow
C G
He will lead them four by four
Em C
He's got nine hundred shackles
C D G
He needs at least a hundred more
C
A thousand men
Em
A thousand men
C
Every good idea
Em
Kills at least a thousand men
C D G
At least a thousand men
See the able-bodied student
C G C
In his laboratory coat
G
Whispering calculations
Em D G
Like prayers stuck in his throat
Soon he will discover
C G
Some flawless medicine
Em C
But right now he needs an oven
D G
That holds at least a thousand men
C
Some are the means
Em
Some are the ends
C
Every good idea
Em
Kills at least a thousand men
C D G
At least a thousand men
D
One thousand one
Em
One thousand one
C
Every man I know
Em
Thinks that he's one thousand one
D
Nine hundred nine
Em
His day is done
C
Every man I know
Em
Thinks that he's one thousand one
C D G
I know I'm one thousand one

See Thomas Jefferson on the eve of Bunker Hill
Writing words to die for, writing sentences to kill
They’ve come to paint his portrait so he grabs a chair and sits
As the surgeon orders cotton for a thousand tourniquets
For God and Country, for us and them
Every good idea kills at least a thousand men
At least a thousand men
See the able-bodied Christian in a dark and savage land
Telling all those who will listen that God was once a man
Through needle’s eye so narrow he will lead them four by four
He’s got nine hundred shackles
He needs at least a hundred more
See the able-bodied student in his laboratory coat
Whispering calculations like prayers stuck in his throat
Soon he will discover some flawless medicine
But right now he needs an oven that holds at least a thousand men
At least a thousand men
One thousand one, one thousand one
Every man I know thinks that he’s one thousand one
Nine hundred nine, his day is done
Every man I know thinks that he’s one thousand one
I know I’m one thousand one
